You don't need to be scared if you understand the situation. The "corona-ism" I'm tired of is everyone acting like they're going to die.

1) Stay home as much as possible.
2) If you absolutely must leave, wear your mask and keep your distance.
3) Don't touch anything.
4) If you do catch caronavirus, it's incredibly unlikely you'll have lasting effects on your health.

Real tired of people calling it the "death plague". When an actual death plague appears, no one is going to take it seriously.

Very much agreed, and corona nearly put me in the hospital and had me crippled for weeks. People talking about how it’ll kill you are just making it easy for idiots to not take it seriously because the death rate is... well, it’s high for something that contagious, but it’s still fairly low. What it’s more likely to do is make you insanely miserable for a week followed by a few weeks of being tired and winded all the time.

drat, sorry for the hospital visit. Seems you have a good perspective on things, though.
Again, not saying to not take it seriously (everyone should)! Calling it the death plague is exaggerating, though.

I'm wondering, was it possible to catch this late November/early December in the US last year. Me and several office workers got pretty sick with "something" going around, one after another. We all had flu shots already. I was hospitalized because I had kidney complications, but only for a couple days. Back in March we were wondering if it was actually coronavirus. Probably not, but :tinfoil:
